- David Van Gough - "MAN/SON and the Haunting of the American Madonna" "From Aleister Crowley to Charles Manson, Liverpool to LA, MAN/SON explores an artistic evocation of America’s occult underbelly. Taking cues from the bloody epithets left at the crime scenes, such as Helter Skelter and Pigs, the series draws upon David's own year-long research into what he terms as sinister architecture, conspiracy, clandestine rituals, magic symbols and the tragic muse -Sharon Tate - recapitulated as the American Madonna and child. Provocative and violent, the paintings bring to mind a nightmarish acid trip worthy of classic horror such as Rosemary’s Baby and The Shining. It’s work that could only be produced by a paranoid mind bent on tapping into toxic echoes from the past. One feels dread and anguish permeating the brush strokes. The work is inhuman and utterly grotesque. I’m reveling in every portrait of an era I’ve only experienced in true crime paperbacks." - Dahlia Jane Original Artwork For Sale (click image for larger picture): "The Return of Eris of Troy - the Teutonic Crusades" by David Van Gough 12"x16" framed oil on canvas $666.00 "Death and the Maiden" by David Van Gough 11"x14" unframed oil on canvas $625.00 "Death of the 60s" by David Van Gough 11"x14" unframed oil on canvas $625.00 Prints For Sale (click image for larger picture): David Van Gough Exhibit Poster 10/1/12 - 10/31/12 Edition of 25 $10.00 "Pig" by David Van Gough 11"x14" unframed signed print $20.00 To purchase a piece, or for more information...Please Click Here - Click Here to see Artwork from this Artist that has previously been Sold -
